Catch a Cure for Cancer, an annual fundraising collaboration of the Center and The Moyer Foundation, featured a series of events in August that raised more than $200,000 for The Gregory Fund benefiting the Center’s early cancer detection research.

The annual radiothon on WARM 106.9 FM featured current and former Major League Baseball players such as Mark Loretta, Rick Sutcliffe and Dave Roberts and inspirational interviews with those who’ve experienced cancer such as Digger Phelps. Karen Moyer, co-founder of The Moyer Foundation and wife of Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Jamie Moyer, hosted the Aug. 27 program.
